The fructose chemical formula is C6H12O6. The answer to the question above regarding the major species present when fructose is dissolved in water (H2O) is "None". No ions are present. It is false that when sugar is dissolved in water there will be strong electrolytes.

Answer:

Alfa-fructofuranose and beta-fructofuranose

Explanation:

The species more stables in water of fructose are their cyclic forms. In aqueous solution, the ketone group of the fructose reacts in a reversible way with the hydroxyl group of the same forming a cyclic hemiketal, in a reaction of intramolecular cycling. These rings formed are more stables when contain 5 or 6 atoms, named furanose and pyranose forms, respectively. In this cycling process the carbonyl carbon (C=O) it is transformed into a chiral center which produces 2 possible anomers, alfa and beta. In the fructose, the hydroxyl group of the formed hemiketal it is produced in the carbon 2 (the anomeric carbon) and can be located above the ring or beneath the ring. In D-sugars (the most common in nature), when the hydroxyl group is located beneath the ring the structure is in the alfa form and when is above the ring is in the beta form.

In the case of fructose dissolved in water it is formed the alfa-fructofuranose an beta-fructofuranose in a majority way, as shown in the picture.

Sugars are capable of suffering of mutarotation when they are dissolved in water, which cause the interconversion of anomers alfa and beta, producing a mix of the alfa and beta forms in the furanose or pyranose rings. And the proportion of each

During photosynthesis, plant leaves take in carbon dioxide through _______ in their leaves. a stomata b xylem c phloem
Iteru [2.4K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Stomata

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Photosynthesis refers to the process that takes place in green plants and some algae.
  • During the process, water and carbon dioxide are converted to nutrients or organic compounds using energy from sunlight.
  • The process takes place in the chloroplast on the leaves of green plants.
  • The water used during photosynthesis comes from the soil and then transported by xylem tissue to the leaves where the process takes place.
  • Carbon dioxide enters the leaves through the stomata which are the sites for gaseous exchange.
  • Sunlight is trapped by green pigments on the leaves known as chlorophyll.

A) Compute the repeat unit molecular weight of polystyrene. B) Compute the number-average molecular weight for a polystyrene for
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Explanation:

In Polystrene, the molecular formula for the repeat unit = C_8H_8;

and the atomic weights of Carbon C = 12.01 g/mol

For Hydrogen, it is 1.01 g/mol

Hence, the repeat unit molecular weight is:

m = 8 (12.01 g/mol)+8(1.01 g/mol)

m = 96.08 g/mol + 8.08 g/mol

m = 104.16 g/mol

The degree of polymerization = no-average molecular weight/repeat unit molecular weight.

Mathematically;

DP = \dfrac{\overline M_n}{m}

\overline M_n= DP \times m

\overline M_n= 25000 \times 104.16 \ g/mol

\overline M_n= 2604000  \ g/mol

If an element has 10 protons and 11 neutrons and 10 electrons, which expression correctly identifies the element? Atomic numbers
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Firstly, it should be noted that atomic number (number of protons) determines element. And the element with the atomic number 10 (10 protons) is Neon. Hence, Neon-10 (₁₀Ne) is the answer.

Note that sodium has an atomic number of 11. Also, number of protons is usually equal to the number of electrons in neutral atoms, this is because the total number of positive particles (protons) must be equal to the total number of negative particles (electrons) to give a neutral atom.

What is the mass of an atom that has 9 protons, 11 neutrons, and 10 electrons
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: By looking at the periodic table, you will see that Fluorine has 9 protons. Since the number of electrons equal the number of protons, Fluorine has 9 electrons as well. Meanwhile, it's mass number of 19, minus 10 neutrons, gives you 9 protons or electrons. Hence, the atom would be Fluorine.
